Tim LaMalfa

President

Starting at the bottom twenty years ago and working my way into this role has taught me many things. At the top of that list is: “Cap Data is only as good as our people”. The energy and work ethic my team brings to the office every day is incredible, and it shows in our deep and long term relationships with clients and partners. My passion is around getting to know each customer and personally interacting with them to better understand their business and unique challenges.

Paul Bowser

Vice President, Professional Services

Passion, excellence and never-ending energy are at my core. It's part of the reason the culture at Cap Data is second to none. And it's a big reason why our engagements are measured in decades—not transactions. Our team members—your squad—are programmed for satisfaction and never stop pursuing excellence. I bring my best every day and welcome any challenge. More important, I don't stop until I know your experience with Cap Data is everything you expect it to be. Like my love for the outdoors, I consider every engagement an adventure with something new to experience at every turn. Ready for passion, excellence and energy? Let's go.

Matt Cefalu

Director of Sales

Trust is my pursuit. I’ve worked my entire career to be the exact opposite of “sales.” My passion is to become a trusted resource for your business and technology needs. With a track record of 20 years at Capital Data, I've had many opportunities to prove what trust is. I welcome all sales challenges and I know through the thousands of customers I have worked with I have the experience to help you make a better decision. I’m a traveler, be it business or pleasure—I love to experience the “new” and learn from my surroundings. It's that openness to learning that will make our journey together rewarding and profitable.

Leah Walters

Director of Marketing/Inside Sales

There’s power in teamwork and there’s power in decision making. I work best when I get input from the team, analyze all issues and then make smart, informed decisions that work for you, our customer. It’s a skill I possess that fuels my ability to just “get it done” here at Cap Data - This is why, for well over a decade, my teammates and clients work well with me.

I channel that same drive and discipline into my everyday routines to help me focus and use my time efficiently.

Outside of my business success, you can find me on a run, enjoying some retail therapy or spending as much time in the sun as possible.

Paul VandeVen

Director, Solution Architecture

When data is at your core, solutions are produced that meet the most demanding expectations. I’ve always been a true technologist throughout my 20+ year career. At Capital Data there is no greater feeling than to see my team become the essential, go-to resource for all things data. You’ll hear me say ``Data Driven Architecture`` consistently and believe me, it will always be at the core of what we do at Capital Data. My love for exacting projects goes beyond technology—you'll find me renovating, woodworking and, on occasion, sailing as I reflect on how we can do better for our customers. In fact, some of my best ideas are inspired when I'm designing a home renovation or building an intricate cabinet. Bring on the challenging seas, I’m ready to navigate with success.

Suzy Olson

Financial Controller

I'm a numbers person through and through. I watch finances and proposals like a hawk. That's how Cap Data structures great programs for our customers, so we can solve problems and transform their business affordably. We push our supplier partners and leverage our deep relationships to optimize budgets. Ultimately, I'd like to think that's why our client relationships last for decades. And my obsession with numbers? It permeates my personal life too in my running routine and racking up the miles. Let us go the distance for you.
